You lucky boy,I'd love to take my zed round Donno track.
As it's a weekend I might come and spectate for an hour as it's on my doorstep.

I did a race prep'd Astra GTE round Donnington many years ago. Great fun. First part of the day was a few laps sat in a passenger seat with Kelvin Burt driving - massive fun and scary as hell at the same time.
Could be a few spectators Steve!

Update pressed the button and having a private tutor for the day - so I my just keep @Brian H in view, rather than him dashing off out of sight
Very envious you have a private tutor all day.

@Twin Turbo,looks like I'll be joining you,booked a place and one instructor session :D.
Got some Fuchs titan race performance engine oil and filter in preparation on it's way from @oilman (Opie oils). Which they advised me to use as it will cope the demands of a track day and can be left in till the next service interval.

Had a thought last night after booking the track day,you have to wear a full face helmet,if it rains on the day I will have to have the roof up.
Will I fit in the car with a helmet on ? I asked myself. It was on my mind all night,so today I got my old lid out the loft and had a dry run..........

The crash helmet just catches on the rear roof spar unless I lean forward a bit,so not too bad if it rains.
But of course it will be dry and sunny and the roof will be down giving me plenty of room for my head :whistle:.
